9 Context Analys results: Local Stakeholder Orgs. 9 Finding: Permanent staff is available in most organisations (6 out of 7) which is complemented by project-related staff (5 out of 7) and in less measure, volunteers (3 out of 7) Facilitators are available in most organisations (6 out of 7) which is complemented by assistants (5 out of 7) and in less measure, trainers (2 out of 7) Both conditions are the most appropriate for project stability. However in Lithuania they are poorly met. But precisely Lithuania orgs. promise as many staff dedication to the project as needed, which is not the case in the other two countries
